A View from Australia
Only national governments can maintain the governance frameworks in which environmental protection can receive its proper priority as integral to sustainable economic development and poverty eradication.
We were delighted at the priority given by this Summit to ensuring the sustainable development of the oceans, as well as the special needs of Small Island Developing States. This group includes Australia's Pacific neighbours and partners, and we have been pleased to work with them to secure these commitments.
Address at the World Summit on Sustainable Development by Hon. Dr. David Kemp MP., Australia's Minister for the Environment and Heritage, [2002]
